I have had my computer for a long time and out of nowhere recently my computer has been randomly shutting off and then won't boot until I clear all the power out of the motherboard and try to boot again. When it does crash my computer turns itself on and off about 10 times before it stops. This morning I first turned my computer on and got a black screen of death then I checked my sata cables but they were all fine. Then I tired to boot again and got into windows and about 5 seconds of being on my desktop my computer blue screens and I try again with the same result, After that when i tried to boot I just got cycling power with the boot only getting to 55-89% or getting a CF error on the motherboard. I don't know if my motherboard or my GPU is failing, if you guys have any suggestion it would be much appreciated.

Thank You,

Peter

Don't think it's your gpu, but you could try swapping it out. Do you have a friend with a computer? If you ask nicely maybe he'll let you swap out you components one at a time with his to see what the problem is. To me it kinda sounds like the motherboard, something which is causing short circuiti or maybe PSU, but I'm not much of an expert.

 

Does you mobo give any peeps while powering on?
